20th overall. I knew I'd goofed a couple races in, but hey, the Hulk slowly pulled BRE up the standings. If I can keep a top-20 once Interlagos is run & done I'll be happy.

Monaco was a nice variation. Now back to regularly scheduled non-points finishes for Hulkenberg and Vergne. I really thought Hulk would find a way to bag points in the FI every couple of races!
